Old Toon Casey = Jason?

If I remember accurately, wasn't Casey Jones a complete psychopath int he old toon?

I mean, he was always a little bit crazy in the movie and comic (overly vioolent, if anything), but in the old toon he was absolutely nuts.

Did they cange his character in that manner to capitalize off the Friday the 13th movies at the time? Like the writers assumed kids would associate anything wearing a hocky mask with Jason Vorheese.

I mean, he was always nutty, but I don't think he ever did anything along the lines of applying for a job at an office building while wearing his hocky mask, or try to break the Turtles' heads open because they tipped a vending machine.

Anyway, just a thought.
